Getty-Led Artistic Collaboration Celebrates Latin America's Impact on Los Angeles

A global beacon for ambitious projects, the Getty Foundation oversees Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA, an innovative partnership between institutions across Southern California that began in 2014 and presented 70 different thematically linked exhibitions in recent months. 

The 70 exhibitions paid tribute to the distinctive impact of Latin American and Latino art, ideas, and culture on the development of Southern California. While these showcases were predominantly rooted in the visual arts, the participation of institutions such as the Hollywood Bowl and the Los Angeles Philharmonic offered an expansion into music, literature, performance, and cultural cuisine. The topics explored in the exhibitions ranged from the pre-Columbian Americas to Southern California's current-day cultural, social, artistic, and political landscape.
